Pros

Right now, I can't think of any, other than it's a pretty good job in a tough market.

Cons

For a company apparently run by devout Christians to announce that hundreds of roles are being *eliminated* (yes they used that word) two weeks before Christmas is surely sociopathic behaviour.

Nepotism and blame

Pros

Some people are great to work with

Cons

Management is terrible and nepotism is rife. Leaders do not care about the well-being of employees but insist on having employee surveys knowing that all the complaints about mental health or stress will not be addressed. If you want to keep your sanity avoid like the plague.
